Only if the information described in this operating instructions 
manual are realised correctly, the safety function and therefore 
the compliance with the Machinery Directive is maintained.

2.2  Special versions

For special versions, which are not listed in the order code below 2.1, 
these specifications apply accordingly, provided that they correspond to 
the standard version.

2.3  Destination and use

The solenoid interlock has been designed to prevent in conjunction 
with the control part of a machine, movable safety guards from being 
opened before hazardous conditions have been eliminated.

Interlocks with the power to lock principle may only be used 
in special cases after a thorough evaluation of the accident 
risk, since the guarding device can immediately be opened 
on failure of the electrical power supply or when the main 
switch is opened.

The safety switchgears are classified according to 
ISO 14119 as type 2 interlocking devices. 

Manual release

(for set-up, maintenance, etc.)
The manual release is realised by turning the triangular key (M5 
triangular key available as accessory), so that the locking bolt is pulled 
into the unlocking position. Please ensure that jamming by external 
influence on the actuator is avoided. The normal locking function is only 
restored after the triangular key has been returned to its original posi-
tion. After being put into operation, the manual release must be secured 
by installing the plastic cover, which is included in delivery. 

Lateral manual release

Manual release on the cover side 
or on the rear side

(ordering suffix -ED/-EU)

Triangular key TK-M5 (101100887) available as accessory.

Emergency release (ordering suffix -N)

(Mounting and actuation only outside of the safety guard)

The emergency release should only be used in an emergency.
The solenoid interlock should be installed and/or protected so 
that an inadvertent opening of the interlock by an emergency 
release can be prevented.
The emergency release must be clearly labelled that it should 
only be used in an emergency. The label can be used that 
was included in the delivery.

To activate the emergency release in case of an emergency, the orange 
lever must be turned to the stop in the direction marked by the arrow. 
In this position, the safety guard can be opened. The lever is latched 
and cannot be returned to its original position. To cancel the blocking 
condition, the central mounting screw must be loosened to such extent 
that the lever can be turned back into its original position. The screw 
must then be re-tightened.

Emergency exit 

(Fitting and actuation only from within the hazardous area)
To activate the emergency exit of the T version in case of an emergency, 
the orange lever must be turned to the stop in direction marked by the ar-
row. The emergency exit function of the TD and TU versions is activated 
by pressing the red pushbutton. In this position, the safety guard can be 
opened. The blocking condition is cancelled by turning the lever in op-
posite direction or by pulling back the pushbutton. In unlocked position, 
the safety guard is protected against unintentional closing.

Lateral emergency exit

(ordering suffix -T)

Emergency exit on the cover side 
or on the rear side

(ordering suffix -TD/-TU)
